Crowd favorite the Grounded Goodwife (Ehris & Velya) are back to present more of their herstory unsanitized. This time they'll be discussing Halloween and the history of witches.

Have you ever wondered, especially on Halloween, why witches are depicted as riding on brooms through the nighttime sky? (It's a story you may find difficult explaining to the kids!)

You're never going to look at sweeping the same way again...

How did the benevolent image of a wise woman transform into the malevolent figure of the witch we know today?
